Koenrad
"In the end you don't so much find yourself as you find someone who knows who you are."–Robert Brault.
Appearance: In terms of stature, Koen takes after his biological mother, Sana. His petite frame and striking blue eyes bear a distinct resemblance to her. In fact, if he were coated in white, it would be impossible to mistake him for anything but her offspring. Standing at a mere 26 inches tall and weighing in at a modest 55 pounds, Koen's size is a reflection of his mother's build. While his coat is predominantly sandy brown with auburn highlights, the agouti accents along his back and tail in shades of gray and charcoal black add depth to his appearance. Although his coat is generally short, Koen sports significant feathering along his neck, back, and tail, giving him an air of elegance and grace.
Scent: Koenrad's scent is a combination of pine, iron, and the faintest hints of rosemary. Together, these scents create a complex and intriguing fragrance that is uniquely Koenrad's own. It's a scent that is both earthy and grounded, yet at the same time, light and refreshing. It's a scent that evokes feelings of peace and calm, like taking a deep breath of fresh mountain air.
Voice: Koenrad's voice is a unique blend of softness and strength, carrying a gentle and soothing quality, yet revealing a hint of vulnerability and hesitation. It bears the marks of hardships he's endured, but also reflects a quiet strength and determination to move forward despite uncertainties.

Biggest flaw: : Koenrad's biggest flaw lies in the deep-seated hatred he harbors towards his biological mother, Sana. The traumatic events of his past have left a lasting scar, causing him to resent and fear the darkness that resides both within her and in himself. This intense animosity can impact his judgment, as it sometimes prevents him from seeing the potential for redemption or change in others, even in those he cares about deeply. His unresolved feelings towards Sana may lead him to act impulsively or react out of fear, creating conflicts within himself and with those around him. In his fear of becoming like her, he judges himself the harshest.

Background
Koenrad's story began in the dark depths of a heart-wrenching tragedy. His own mother, Sana, attempted to take his life and that of his siblings by throwing them into a treacherous river. But fate intervened when his father, Takota, leaped into the rushing waters and saved them. From that moment, Koenrad and his siblings were taken in and secretly raised as Takota and Juniper's own, shrouding their origins in secrecy.
As they grew, the weight of their origins became more apparent, especially when it came to his brother Percval. Tragedy struck once more when his two brothers lost their lives at the hands of their vengeful biological mother. The loss marked a deep scar on Koenrad's heart, leaving him grappling with the painful truth about his past.
At a pack meeting, Sana revealed herself as their true mother, setting off a chain of events that would forever change their lives. Takota, realizing the burden of his past and the darkness that clung to the pack, made a difficult decision to step down as their leader. Despite the love he held for his family and pack, he knew that distance was necessary for their safety.
The next pack meeting brought another blow when a heavily pregnant Juniper decided to join Takota in exile. Koenrad felt the weight of abandonment once more, as his parents left without much explanation. In the aftermath of the meeting, his sister Himeojo and aunt Wisae sought to comfort him, but his heart remained heavy with questions and uncertainty.
During his solitary journey, he encountered Brielle and Tauri, two wolves who pulled him back from the edge of isolation and reminded him of the importance of connection. Their kindness and companionship gave him hope and a renewed sense of purpose.
Alone and lost, Koenrad ventured out to find his place in the world. Survival was a challenge, going from pack life where everything was provided for him to having to provide for himself made it even harder. However, the memories of his family kept him going, pushing him to find a way back to them.
Despite the hardships and the darkness that surrounded him, Koenrad's determination to find his family remained unwavering. Finally, the day came when he reunited with Juniper, the mother who had loved him and his sister as her own. In that moment, he felt a glimmer of hope that perhaps, in the midst of all the pain and loss, he could find a new beginning and a sense of belonging. The journey had been long and arduous, but it was far from over as he faced the challenges of forgiveness, self-discovery, and finding his place in a world that had been marked by both tragedy and love.
